Cooled blade for a gas turbine

1. A cooled blade, for a gas turbine, comprising:

a blade airfoil which extends between a leading edge and a trailing edge in a flow direction and on a suction side and on a pressure side is delimited by a wall,

wherein the walls include an interior space in which cooling air flows towards the trailing edge in the flow direction and discharges to an outside area in the region of the trailing edge,

the pressure-side wall terminating at a distance in front of the trailing edge in the flow direction, forming a pressure-side lip, in such a way that the cooling air discharges from the interior space on the pressure side,

the interior space, at a distance in front of the trailing edge, is sub-divided by a plurality of ribs, which are oriented parallel to the flow direction, into a plurality of parallel cooling passages which create a pressure drop and in which turbulators are additionally arranged for increasing the cooling effect, and

before an outlet of the cooling air from the interior space a plurality of flow barriers are arranged in the flow path of the cooling air and distributed transversely to the flow direction, wherein each flow barrier extends in the flow direction to a point upstream of the pressure-side lip.

2. The cooled blade as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the flow barriers have a flow-conforming or virtually flow-conforming cross section.

3. The cooled blade as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the flow barriers have a teardrop-shaped edge contour, a pointed end thereof pointing in the flow direction.

4. The cooled blade as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a plurality of pins are arranged in a two-dimensional grid arrangement between the cooling passages and the flow barriers and extend transversely to the flow direction through the interior space between the suction-side and pressure-side walls.

5. The cooled blade as claimed in claim 1 , wherein obliquely disposed ribs on the inner sides of the suction-side and pressure-side walls are provided as turbulators in the cooling passages.

6. The cooled blade as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the pressure-side lip forms a straight linear edge along an entire length.

7. A method for operating a cooled blade in a gas turbine, said blade comprising a blade airfoil and a blade root, the blade airfoil extends between a leading edge and a trailing edge in a flow direction and on a suction side and on a pressure side is delimited in each case by a wall, the pressure-side wall terminating at a point upstream of the trailing edge in the flow direction to form a pressure-side lip, wherein the walls include an interior space with cooling passages, in said interior space a cooling air flow flows towards the trailing edge of the blade airfoil and discharges to an outside area in a region of the trailing edge, the method comprising:

providing axial ribs, for enlarging a heat transfer surface between walls and cooling air flow, which act in the interior space;

providing rib-like turbulators in the cooling passages, which increase the heat transfer coefficient in the associated sphere of influence, the axial ribs and the turbulators bring about a pressure drop; and

providing flow barriers, at an outlet of the trailing edge, having a lower or higher linear density than the linear density of the axial ribs, which create a homogeneity of the cooling air flow in an associated sphere of influence with a minimized blocking action, wherein each flow barrier extends in the flow direction to a point upstream of the pressure-side lip.

8. The method as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the flow barriers having a teardrop-shaped form, minimize lateral uneven distribution of the cooling air film which ensues, thereby avoiding large trailing vortices behind the flow barriers.

9. The method as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the pressure-side lip forms a straight linear edge along an entire length.
